The Total Tragedy of a Girl Named Hamlet by Erin Dionne
8th grader Hamlet Kennedy does not have your average life. She has a genius 7-year-old sister that is in her 8th grade class and she has Shakespeare-obsessed parents. Dezzie (her genius sister) is ruining her life! Hamlet is failing pre-algebra and it doesn’t help that Dezzie is “tutoring” Hamlet’s secret crush, Carter. In English, their Shakespeare unit is just starting, and when Mrs. Wimple asks Hamlet to read aloud to the class from A Midsummer Night’s Dream, she finds an unwanted talent. Hamlet gets assigned the lead role in the Shakespeare play, and trying to hide it from her parents isn’t working. Especially when Mrs. Wimple invites them in to teach the class about Shakespeare. Find out what happens to Hamlet by reading the book! Review by Caitlin
